Description from store A lightweight extension which lets you disable all links on a webpage. Usage • • • To toggle between disabling and enabling all links, simply click the extension icon (located in the upper right corner of the browser) or use the keyboard shortcut **Alt + Shift + D**. Features • • • The extension curretly comes with two main features, which can be activated through the extension's options page (see below for more details). • Save toggle status globally and on page reload: if this option is checked, when you hit "disable links" the change will be reflected on all tabs, and links will stay disabled even after page reload. • Only disable links that follow a pattern: if this option is enabled, when you hit "disable links" only links in the disable list will be disabled. All other links will stay enabled. This option is automatically enabled if the disable list is not empty. The disable list can be configured with a pattern per line, and accepts wildcards with the * sign. Configuration • • • • Shortcuts: you can configure the shortcut in the Chrome shortcuts page at chrome://extensions/shortcuts • Options: you can configure the extension options through the extension's options page Bugs and feature requests • • • For any issues, bugs and feature requests feel free to open an issue on Github at https://github.com/fabiosangregorio/links-disabler/issues

  • (2022-01-20) Brian Boddaert: Doesn't work for me on Windows 10. Simply put, links still work even if I click on the extension
  • (2021-12-04) Nils “UzAt” Dudda: It's perfect. From now on I'll save so much time by not clicking again on those click-bait sites like "spiegel.de" and so on... Thank you.
  • (2021-06-08) Someone You Don't Know: extremely useful! thanks!
  • (2021-01-03) Hector Perez: This extension doesn't work on my Widows 10 with the most updated version of Chrome.
  • (2019-11-04) Jeong-hun Sin: I was looking for an extension that turns all hyperlinks on a webpage into plain text. Google search gave me only this and "Disable links."(https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/disable-links/kgghjfabpkpodeancnenkndklnomjpbf). The problem with this extension is that, it only disables links' click events. That is, they are still links, but when you click them, nothing happens. Since they still links, they cause problems when selecting. The problem of "Disable links." is that it does seem to turn links into plain texts (albeit their colours are still blue), links become plain texts only while you are holding Ctrl and Alt. Like Cinderella past 12 o'clock, the moment you release Ctrl and Alt, they become links again.
